Medical Coding Expert, Doris Vick, Presents at the Texas Osteopathic Medical Association Event

    DALLAS, TX, January 14, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Osteopathic medicine has taken on a definite greater popularity since the 1980s. It is obviously a trend that is on the rise, but not too many really know and understand osteopathic medicine.

Many Americans are still completely unaware that doctors of osteopathic medicine are licensed to practice medicine, and well over half are unaware that osteopathic physicians are also licensed to perform surgery, according to an industry expert, Doris Vick, presenting at the 59th TOMA annual Midwinter conference being presented on February 6 -8, 2015 at Omni Dallas Park by the organization.

The conference presentation themed "Transitioning from ICD-9-CM to ICD-10-CM" is a revision, not a reinvention of diagnostic coding. The conference brings together Doris Vick, a leading advocate of osteopathic medicine and other distinguished speakers to discuss various hot healthcare topics.

The objective of the ICD-10 Transitioning:

- Recognize and utilize past knowledge
- Identify structural coding requirements
- Capture additional components

The event is being held annually to address various challenging issues in the field and how to tackle it. The TOMA Midwinter Conference attracts dedicated osteopathic professionals vitally interested in improving their practice and osteopathic medicine through the continuing education process.
